WHERE DID IVY GO?

Where did Ivy go? explores the joyful world of surreal escapism. By engaging in mindful creation and place-based emotions, each garment is infused with a sense of joy and vibrancy, bringing the wearer into a world of exuberant bliss, of tropical colour fiestas, at the edge of conscious existence. By using a mix of natural dyes and raffia weaving techniques, a rich colour palette and textural landscape translates the ebbs and flows of emotions and thoughts into a material understanding. Through considered, intuitive design and artisanal crafts, Ivy creates a new luxury that goes beyond materials and transcends into an ethereal sphere that gives both its maker and its wearer a sense of self, joy and exuberance through their existence.
